How to visit

Admission is the garden's only meaningful funding. Pay it. Stay on the marked trails. Do not collect, deadhead, or break leaves off plants for photos; some of the species in the collection are endangered in the wild and cuttings here are part of the conservation record. Strollers and wheelchairs reach roughly half the trail; some descents to the bay are stairs only. The bay shoreline below the garden is part of the garden, not a public beach — do not enter from a kayak.
